what other okcomputer checks do we need?

[jmartin-sul]

stub initial implementation indicates:

# by default, okcomputer does "app up?" and "database conntected?" checks

see #334

other possibilities:

• can connect to fedora?
• can connect to WFS?
• can read from... ?
• can write to... ?
  • adequate space in... ?

Not feeling fedora/WFS checks. As infrequently as this app is actively used, those alerts aren't going to as be meaningful as just getting the honeybadger exceptions.

[jmartin-sul]

fair point. easy enough to reopen this and add more checks if needed. closing this one.

[jmartin-sul]

ok, actually, @atz says maybe add a redis check, because it's cheap (box on the same machine, canned check available or at least pattern from pres cat, so cheap both in terms of resource usage and dev time).

reopening and putting in backlog.

[jmartin-sul]

@atz also points out that we can make some checks optional, if we want the status info, but don't want to give pager alerts for them (e.g. connection to fedora at 5 am when no one's using the app)
